And of course, the old stand-bys:

Led Zeppelin

The Police

Also been getting a bit nostalgic for alot of misc. 80s stuff like The Smiths, and just really some songs that take me back to those days of yore:

Video Killed the Radio Star-Buggles
Ant Music-Adam Ant
Money-Flying Lizards
I Do the Rock-Tim Curry
Reap the Wild Wind-Ultravox
Planet Earth-Duran Duran
Heaven 17-Let Me Go
Psychedelic Furs-Love My Way (without a doubt, one of the best singles AND videos of the 80s. Great vibe, really weird. Still holds up today. Knocked me out when I heard it back in the day.)

(Also...a great 80s album...one of the best: "Pop" by Tones On Tail. It's definitely 80s, but still has great sustaining power even now. Those guys really dropped the ball when they became Love & Rockets.)

....and since it's Christmas time now:'Do They Know It's Christmas?'-Band Aid (heavy nostalgia on that one)

Heard The Police "Wrapped Around Your Finger" the other day and had a heavy dose of nostalgia. Came outta nowhere and just consumed my brain. what the hell??
